Taking a couple of experienced Sea Kayakers down the local river. They handled it well with no adventures. Next time we'll wait for loads of rain... ;-)
@dailacey Dai, I've sent you a message. My advicde is don't paddle the river on your own. Get someone that knows what they are doing to lead you down. It looks easy in the clip but there's a few grade 3 drops.
PM me on UKRGB and we can chat about meeting up so you can have a safe and fun paddle.
You can get in as high as the Ogmore Vale (there's another wier if you do that though!) The stretch in the clip is from underneath the motorway bridge (top of Bridgend) down to the wier by the leisure centre (the rec). Fancy a bash?
